I guess its nothing too serious but I have recently become somewhat discombobulated by something that really shouldn't disturb me.
A few newly created fruit.
Yes, I know that fruits are the means by which many plants disseminate seeds. Many plants
bearing edible fruits, in particular, have propagated with the
movements of humans and animals in a symbiotic relationship as a means for seed dispersal and nutrition, respectively; in fact, humans and many animals have become dependent on fruits as a source of food. Including
my parents.
So why should my nose get out of joint because we have a few new fruits? Because its odd. It's Dolly the Sheep all over again.

So if you're going to muck around at least take 2 serious fruits and make them into something funtastic - pineapple and kiwi, coconut and banana, strawberry and a guava.
This is what the world can look forward to:
Tangelo - A citrus fruit hybrid of a tangerine and a grapefruit
Grapple - Apple that has been specially treated so that it tastes like grapes.
Aprium - Complex crossing of a plum and an apricot.
Orangelo - A cross between a grapefruit and an orange
Plumcot - Another plum/apricot hybrid.
Pineberry - A white-looking strawberry with flesh tasting of pineapple.
